VBAC!! Plz share your experience!!

Ok, so mashAllah I am four months pregnant with my second baby.. And don’t have a single clue of how the vbac will turn out to be.. Especially when you conceive quite early after a cesarean. My son was just 1 when I found out I was already 5 weeks pregnant!!

plz those of you who went through the same situation, can share their experience??

Re: VBAC!! Plz share your experience!!

From what you have written it will be 19 months when you deliver your second child. I think it is enough time for the incision to be healed. I had my second child after 2.5 years so my incision was healed. The doctor also checked the type of incision that was made the first time.

Discuss it with your doctor. Mine was ok with me attempting it. She told me the risks and everything. She told me to get epidural as well so that if there is an emergency c-section due to uterus rupture, I will be ready for the surgery.
In the end I ended up not getting epidural either.

Dont know why you had c-section. I had it because my baby was in distress so I had no personal reason of not attempting vbac. But everyone's circumstances are different.

Re: VBAC!! Plz share your experience!!

Yes, it will depend on the circumstances of your first birth, the type of incision and how you've healed. Talk to your OB/GYN-Midwife and let them know your wishes for VBAC..they can guide you.

Also, congratulations!

I had Vbac. for me it was hard as epidural didnt work, due to shape of my body, i was told i am not able to deliver without help..so episiotomy and vaccum was used. but recovery was good and quick. even though i had huge cut, i recovered very quickly.
